If you are
still considering writing about the spot we
discussed there are two additional pieces of
information: 1) Isaac continues to
state in public forums that he supports the elimination
of all property taxes,
without being specific on how to replace the revenue (we
can supply tapes if
necessary), and 2) In his unsuccessful attempt to
respond to our advertisement he
now says on his website, “A consumption-based model is
just one of many
potential options to reduce the tax burden on Texas
families.”
So he clearly states a raise in sales tax is an option
to reduce taxes.
Interesting argument, and in order to achieve this goal
sales tax would have to
go up to between 14 and 21%.
